It was already 8pm when we reach ther, only left with 1hr to walk ard. Eileen, david, ling, her bro & elvin were ther as well. I bought a 512MB flash drive, been wanting to buy tat long ago le, nw finally bought it. Dear bought a Creative Muvo mp3 player cum FM receiver cum flash drive, Quite worth it wor..got alot of functions. Hmmz... i wan a mp3 player as well. Everyone ard me has got mp3 players, both my bros has got themselves ipod with 10 & 15GB of storage space, even dear has an mp3 player. I also wan one!! A cheap one from Creative will do. Each of us bought something at the fair. After all the shopping, we went to the central near my hse for dinner & then call it a day.
Sun (28/11/04) Mini Steamboat Buffet at home
Sun was a fun & tiring day. Met up with eileen & went boon lay market at ard 10 plus. Had kway chup for breakfast at the newly furnished hawker center & then went to the market to buy food for our steamboat. We bought lotsa food, veggies, crab stick, sliced sheng yu, 1kg of prawn, hotdog, chicken fillet & etc. I think we kena cheated by the man who sell us the sheng yu, one small packet for $5. So ex! After marketing, we went ntuc to buy the rest of the food stuffs. It was so much cooler at ntuc. Took a cab back to dear hse to prepare the soup first. We added chicken bones, ginseng & a pinch of salt for the soup base. It taste soOoo delicious man! Really veri nice!! Somemore we din add any MSG at all. Credit goes to eileen cos she she was the one looking after tat pot of soup while dear & i prepared the other food. We let the pot of soup to boil while eileen & i went back to my hse to scan pics. After all the scanning, we went back to dear hse to start our mini steamboat buffet. We ate 3 rounds in total. Veri full man! Dun know y it taste extremely delicious mayb because we cook it ourselves. I dun think it wil taste jus as nice if it was cook by someone else. Though i was veri tired but i did enjoy the process of cooking & eating. Eileen left dear hse at ard 6 plus. Dear & i continue eating steamboat for our dinner. There's still quite alot of food & soup left uncooked after our dinner.
So no choice.. had steamboat for dinner again on mon nite. Met up with dear after work & went jp ntuc to buy some veggies & fish dumplings for the steamboat. It was already veri late after we finish our dinner, wash the dishes & clean up the kithen. Was so tired tat i fell asleep the moment i lay on my bed. Spend abt 50+ on the food for the steamboat but i think it's quite worthwhile cos we enjoyed ourselves & somemore we only had this kinda steamboat once in a blue moon so it's okay. Though it was tiring preparing the food & cleaning up the kitchen but it was FUN!
Mon (29/11/04) Matured & responsible person
This morning i call dear umpteens times on his mobile & home but he din ans. I called him to c if he overslept. I was so worried when he din ans my call. I thought something bad happened to him at home, cos his alone at home these few days. So i went over to his hse to hav alook, he wasn't at home but i found his hp lying beside his bed. Mus b in a rush then forgot to bring his hp. So brought his hp with me & diverted all his calls to his friend's hp. Now dear promoted to senior instructor (SI), dun hav to take IPPT for those re-service ppl, got the authority to assign work to his fellow PTI. haha.. So gd! But it wasn't easy job begin a SI. There r lots more responsibilty & so much more things to take care of. Can see tat dear has become a more matured & responsible person nw. Been meeting dear to & from work these days. Like it when we go to work together, will always prepare an extra set of breakfast for him & then feel so contented when i see him finish up the breakfast i made for him.
